for the record, i friggin' love my Decade! it's the perfect bass for me as it doesn't make a single sound that i couldn't find a use for!
i did switch one of the volume knobs for a blend. it's more convenient for me to just have a master volume knob, as i pretty much only use the pups in one of three configs: neck only, both full on, bridge only. really, if i could do anything, i'd honestly think about taking out the blend and putting a pup selector switch. same thing.
 
also, "action shots!!" :hyper:

Well, no sense in posting in #17 anymore :) Here we go, picking up from here http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showpost.php?p=7354158&postcount=911... it's time for some pics. Bought this in March 07 from Bass Specialties just outside Philly in Bensalem PA. Did all the buying over the phone and through email and had a great experience. Never touched a Lakland before this one so it was a big roll of the dice... and the only thing I wish I did different was get a 5 string. Instantly fell in love with the bass. It was night and day playing the Lakland compared to my 92 Ibanez SR800. I'm definitely a fan... but I still want a Sadowsky too :) And I also want my darn user name changed....

Ok, on to the pics (and are there any mods for the -02 like there are the -01?).... oh, and one day I will be purchasing black hardware and taking the bridge to a shop to strip the chrome plating and powder coat it black :bassist:

I'm kinda the same way with pickup selection.... a switch would be pretty groovy!
